Venice imposes a $5.15 "Access Fee" on day-trippers in 2025 to curb overcrowding.

Venice will continue its tourist tax on day-trippers through 2025, requiring a "Venice Access Fee" of five euros ($5.15) on 54 designated days between April and July. Visitors must purchase tickets between 8:30 am and 4:00 pm, with the fee increasing to ten euros for last-minute bookings. The initiative aims to reduce overcrowding and control tourist flow, with overnight visitors and residents exempt. The 2024 trial led to a slight decrease in day-trippers and improved visit planning.
